Gran curso, aproxima los temas de manera objetiva y respetuosa, haciendo reflexionar y me otorgo conocimientos para ver a los animales desde una perspectiva más completa. Me agradó mucho que sean puras profesoras, todas demuestran un dominio en sus conocimientos que inspira.

This is an excellent course! I was affected emotionally by the chapter on farm animals and had decided to discontinue my study. However, after completing a different course on animal behavior (in the clinic), I revisited this and decided to complete it (four years later).

This was an informative course. It has provided me with information that has changed the way that I view animals. It has allowed me to realise that I have been guilty of some of these things such as anthropomorphising animals. I am encouraging others to take this course.

This is a reall great course! I learned so many things that I didn't really think about before. I truly think this is a great opportunity for people who may be insterested in studying animal-related fields to have an idea of what they might be dealing with in the field.

Espectacular. Este curso lo hizo mi hija de 14 años que es unschooler y ella misma dirige su aprendizaje. Su sueño es ser veterinaria. Le interesa todo curso que tenga que ver con animales, sus cuidados e interacción en la sociedad. Fue una experiencia muy buena.

I very much enjoyed this course. I feel it provided just enough information to get a high over view of the animal welfare issues across farming and captivity. They provide extra reading material for those who want to dig deeper into a specific subject or topic.
